My blog has been around since 2013. Throughout that year my grandma was the subject of a regular Thursday series I called Demented Thursday. I shared my experiences with her as she entered the dark world of Alzheimer's/Dementia. In the fall of 2013 my grandma was still functioning but losing her memories and recollections. Every Thursday I took her out - to the beauty shop, the store, or just to go pick up my daughter from preschool. I have savored those moments for the past couple of years as she has deteriorated.

Her fight ended a little past three o'clock.
As I walked home thinking about her impact in my life I immediately remembered the series I posted out back in 2013 that was inspired by our trips out on Thursdays. Last night, I sat up with a cup of coffee after the kids went to be and scoured through the posts to find some of my favorites to share today.
Here are few I would love for you to read if you have time. As always I strive to place humor in the heartache.

I appreciate when you say you keep us in your prayers. But I really want you to pray for and help support the fight to end Alzheimer's Disease and the variations of dementia that are plaguing this world.
Love you, Mom-o. Like I said the last time we talked, I will be expecting chicken pie, black eyed peas, peanuts and Pepsi.
